[PATCH 6/7] powerpc: switch to using thin archives if COMPILE_TEST is set

[Nicholas Piggin]

Enable thin archives build for powerpc when COMPILE_TEST is set.
Thin archives are explained in this commit:

  a5967db9af51a84f5e181600954714a9e4c69f1f

This is a gradual way to introduce the option to testers.

Some change to the way we invoke ar is required so it can be used
by scripts/link-vmlinux.sh.
